Sometimes, something looks just right: This is one of those. A ladies motorcycle jacket where the cut is stunning to look at, the leather finish is bang on the vintage look and the technical elements make it a proper motorbike jacket without looking bulky. Much of the latter has to do with the D3O armour, which creates a softer silhouette than traditional motorcycle armour.

Potential for potent protection: Connection zip for trousers is included although it is unlikely to be used on this type of jacket, which is that much more likely to go on the road with a pair of Kevlar jeans.
